OPERATION
DIP Switch #1
Inside communication light illumination
• Reference Figure 13 for this DIP switch setting detail.
• When DIP Switch #1 is in the OFF position, the inside
communication lights will illuminate solid. The APS
2000 comes from the factory with this setting.
• When DIP Switch #1 is in the ON position, the inside
communication lights will ash.
DIP Switch #2
Hook position in "RESTRAINT OVERRIDE/
HORN SILENCE" operating mode
• Reference Figure 14 for this DIP switch setting detail.
• When DIP Switch #2 is in the OFF position, the hook
will lower when the APS 2000 is switched to "RE-
STRAINT OVERRIDE/HORN SILENCE". The APS
2000 comes from the factory with this setting.
• When DIP Switch #2 is in the ON position, the hook
will maintain position when the operator turns the key
switch from "NORMAL" to "RESTRAINT OVERRIDE/
HORN SILENCE".
• Always be certain wheels are chocked and vehicle
brakes are set before switching to "RESTRAINT
OVERRIDE/HORN SILENCE".
DIP Switch #3
Automatic Re-Engagement
• Reference Figure 15 for this DIP switch setting detail.
• When DIP Switch #3 is in the OFF position, the auto-
matic re-engagement feature is active. The APS 2000
comes from the factory with this setting.
Note: DIP Switch #2 must be in the ON position for
automatic re-engagement to be active.
• When DIP Switch #3 is in the ON position, the auto-
matic re-engagement feature is NOT active.
Description of the Auto Re-Engagement Feature:
Once the notch on the top of the hook is wrapped
over the RIG as shown in Figure 10, and the inside
light turns green, the vehicle is safe to enter for the
loading or unloading process.
If during the loading or unloading process, the hook
loses proper engagement with the RIG as shown in
Figure 10A, the inside light will turn red and the alarm
will sound. In this event, after a 3 second delay, the
restraint will automatically attempt to properly engage
the RIG.
◊ Only one re-engagement will be attempted by the
APS 2000 vehicle restraint each occurrence.
◊ Provided a secure re-engagement is achieved,
the APS 2000 vehicle restraint will return the
inside light to green and the alarm will silence.
Enter the vehicle on a green light signal only.
